--------------------------- "The light can remain on the radio from 15 minutes up to 6 hours. When the designated time has passed the display message and light will be reset to their normal state. Thank you, Temple Hundley Consumer Customer Service Midland Radio Corporation 5900 Parretta Drive Kansas City, MO 64120" --------------------------- Chuck WB2EDV
